Webb County LULAC

🌟 A DAY OF LEADERSHIP, LEARNING, AND INSPIRATION! 🌟

Last week, Webb County LULAC Council #22387 had the privilege of welcoming outstanding high school students from across our community to the 2026 LULAC Youth Summit.

Throughout the day, our future leaders had the opportunity to learn, connect, and discover the power they possess to create positive change in their schools and communities. Their enthusiasm, ideas, and commitment to service remind us that the future of Webb County is bright.

We extend our sincere gratitude to our speakers, volunteers, community partners, and everyone who helped make this event possible. Most importantly, thank you to the students who invested their time in themselves and in their future.

At LULAC, we believe that leadership begins with service and that empowering young people today strengthens our community tomorrow.

Together, we are building the next generation of leaders who will continue to uplift and serve others.

Thank you for making the 2026 LULAC Youth Summit a tremendous success!

✨ Your Voice. Your Future. Your Legacy.

Tonight, Webb County LULAC Council #22387 proudly celebrated the achievements of 19 outstanding students from middle schools across Laredo and Webb County during our 2026 8th Grade Scholar of the Year Ceremony.

Since launching this program in 2020, we have recognized 886 students through our Scholar of the Month initiative, growing from 16 participating schools to 22 schools countywide. This program continues to highlight academic excellence, leadership, character, and community involvement among our future leaders.

Congratulations to all of this year’s school representatives and especially to our 2026 Scholars of the Year:

🥉 2nd Runner-up – Micah Rubio, St. Augustine Middle School
🥈 1st Runner-up – Alyssa Vasquez, Salvador Garcia Middle School

Each student recognized tonight represents the very best of our community. We are incredibly proud of your accomplishments and look forward to seeing the positive impact you will make in the years ahead.

Thank you to our parents, teachers, counselors, administrators, sponsors, and volunteers for investing in the next generation of leaders.

The future of Webb County is bright because of students like these. Congratulations to all! 🎓✨
